I have been updating the product descriptions and revised the pages on Copal Medicinal Oil and Copal Medicinal Ointment in Product Descriptions.

Since we are doctors down here in Toledo, most locals are actually more interested in our medical products.  Our copal products were the first things we made and still remain the most commonly sought after preparation in Belize.

Copal Resin (Protium copal) has been used by the Mayans for centuries in skin ailments including infections and inflammatory conditions.  It is a medicine which is still used in the villages of Toledo but with westernisation and modernisation, many younger Mayans are losing these traditions.

If you are interested in reading about how we came about making this medicine, please read my article Copal in the Library.
